The five of us got picked up an hour late from original start time. We waited outside for a while with the company saying that the guide was caught in traffic. 55 minutes was too long. This was a bummer. Another couple from a hotel were also picked up 80 minutes late.They missed breakfast waiting around early for the agreed time. Company send an apology. thankfully we did not have any plans in late afternoon. Guide extended the end time. He also bought small snacks for everyone to make up for late start.He was friendly and kind. Although my mom wanted more picture pause during the tour.

We always like to go on an organised tour of wherever we go for a holiday as it shows you all the main sites and with a good guide you get a great insight into the local culture and area. A large group of us met outside Costa Coffee in the Gothic quarter where we were organised into two groups and sent to get our bikes, 10 minutes later we were kitted up and ready to go with tour guide Kassidy, there were about 20 in our group. Around the Gothic area we were mainly pushing the bikes due to the volume of foot traffic, but we were soon on the road and taking in the sites. I won't mention every stop, but we took in maybe a dozen or so stops with our guide keeping us informed and always open to answer questions. Towards the end of the tour we stopped off for lunch, ,the particular place didn't interest us that much so we popped round the corner for something different. The tour in total took around four hours and flew by, if you can ride a bike you will be able to take the pace as it is very sedate with very few inclines and if you do lag behind the guides will wait. We paid around £60.00 for the two of us, which while not cheap was still worth it, great equipment, interesting tour and an informative friendly guide.

My husband and I made the Private Secret Food Tour a week ago and it was amazing! The guide (a local) was so friendly and so happy, it was a pleasure to spend the day with him. We had the chance to test so many different foods, explore the quarter and learn about the history. Also we got a list with recommendations, so that we can still try out some of those amazing places Barcelona has to offer. Also with Covid, there were no problems. Every restaurant was open, the guide wore a mask all the time and kept the distance. Also the restaurants were quit empty which was also nice. Whenever it good crowded, we went outside! I can highly recommend the tour.
